Exhibit 99.1

 

RISK FACTORS

 

KCA Deutag International Limited’s (“KCA Deutag”) independent auditors issued qualified audit reports for KCA Deutag’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

 

In July 2022, KCA Deutag exited its businesses in Russia in response to the war in Ukraine and related UK and Jersey-imposed sanctions. The Russian businesses were accounted for as discontinued operations in KCA Deutag’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. The independent auditors’ report of such financial statements contained a qualification as to scope regarding such discontinued operations. Auditors issue a qualified report as to scope when they are unable to obtain sufficient audit evidence to determine whether adjustments are necessary to amounts reflected in the financial statements. As a result of Jersey sanctions banning the provision of audit services to entities connected with the Russian Federation, KCA Deutag’s independent auditors could not obtain sufficient audit evidence with respect to such discontinued operations in order to determine whether any adjustments were necessary. In light of such qualification in the 2022 audit report, KCA Deutag’s independent auditors modified their audit report of the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 because of the possible effect of the scope limitation on the comparability of amounts in fiscal 2023 with corresponding amounts in fiscal 2022. Although KCA Deutag’s Russian operations have been discontinued and are only relevant to the company’s results of operations and financial position in a historical comparison context, as a consequence of the scope limitation, the 2022 consolidated financial statements could nonetheless contain a material misstatement as to the amounts relating to such discontinued operations.
